Dealing With Temptation

Leave a reply

James 1:2-16

Temptation = tempting, testing and trying.

It is inevitable that we will be tempted, tested, and tried. God’s wisdom is available for the asking by faith. Let’s learn to ask and swallow our pride. Let’s learn to take hold of every provision that God has made available to us. Pride will only lead us into greater temptations.

Be teachable.
Be wise.
Be understanding.
Be a lover of God’s Word.
Be a student of God’s Word.
Be a doer of God’s Word.

STOP RESISTING AND JUST DO IT!

Be faithful!

1 Peter 5:6-11

We must always remember who our adversary is. I want to encourage all of us to make this “a day of praise to the Lord.”

Let’s praise Him in the morning, let’s praise Him at the noontime, and let’s praise Him in the evening.

Be blessed.
Be prosperous.
Be highly favored of God.

Be faithful!

Everyone of us is tempted in one way or another every day of our lives. How will we handle temptation? Verse 13 is a real eye-opener. We must continue to stand and declare God’s Word as our final authority.

Be strong.
Be committed.
Be determined.
Be submitted.
Be a student of God’s Word.
Be a lover of God’s Word.
Be a doer of God’s Word.

Obedience

Psalm 112:1-10

Let’s ask the Holy Spirit to help us meditate and get a complete understanding of the promises from this chapter in Psalms. God has many promises for us but they are all conditional on our obedience to be doers of His Word.

Can we be obedient?

Will we be obedient?

My prayer is that we will be obedient to be doers of God’s Word and not hearers only.

Have a blessed, prosperous, and highly favored day.

Enlarging the Kingdom

Leave a reply

Colossians 1:9-20

God has done so much for us and now it is time for us to proceed forward with maximum effort to do the work of the ministry and to be pleasing to our Father. There is no way we could ever repay God for what He has done for us but we must be busy about enlarging His kingdom. Everyone of us knows someone that needs Jesus in their life. Are we extending a hand to them to bring them into the fold? Are we inviting them to come to church and be a part of the body of Christ?

WE MUST BE ABOUT OUR FATHER’S BUSINESS!

Be faithful!
